Natural rivers support rich biodiversity by constantly renewing themselves and creating diverse habitats for plants and animals to thrive.| World Rivers
It’s not just water that flows—sediment, sand, and gravel move too, shaping the river’s course and deeply influencing its dynamics.| World Rivers
The Mystery of Lost Rivers: When Water Disappears Underground| World Rivers
River erosion sculpts Earth's surface, carving valleys, carrying sediment, and meandering across plains as water's energy reshapes the land over time.| World Rivers
Meandering is common in the rivers in the lower reaches of the rivers, where the river changes its course through time.| World Rivers
Sediment settles as river energy fades—forming bars, banks, and floodplains. This quiet process plays a vital role in shaping ecosystems and terrain.| World Rivers
A river delta is nature’s masterpiece, where freshwater meets the sea, creating a lush, ever-changing landscape.| World Rivers
Albania rivers tumble from mountains to the Adriatic—wild, untamed, and now at risk as dam projects threaten their flow, life, and future.| World Rivers
